Chunky Wheel Table Runner Tutorial

Half square triangles can be a lot of fun to sew with. They are quick to sew and can be rearranged into a variety of different layouts.

This table runner features 3 quilt blocks. They are kind of a chunky wheel– thus the name.

It is charm pack friendly. Divide the pack into lights and darks. The background doesn’t have to be a solid. It can be just a lighter than the dark fabric– has enough contrast to stand out. The design does blend the fabrics together if they are the same value, but when you look at it from farther away, you do see the chunky wheel.
